Don’t look now, (and it’s still early in conference play) but the Air Force Men’s Basketball team has really started to come together and play the type of ball Dave Pilipovich envisioned coming into the season. Another home double digit conference victory January 22nd, beating Boise State 74-60. I asked Pilipovich what the difference has…… MORE

WOW…….
1-16-19…The night at Clune Arena the Air Force Men’s Basketball announced to the rest of the Mountain West Conference it has the potential to make life absolutely miserable for any team they face the rest of the season. The 106-88 win over UNLV set a school record for points against a conference foe. The dismantling…… MORE
FALCONS LOOKING FOR THE RIGHT GROOVE
Air Force Men’s basketball Coach Dave Pilipovich walked quickly and purposefully off the court at CSU Wednesday Night. He was angry and bewildered by his teams 87-64 loss to Colorado State, which dropped the Falcons to 5-10 and 0-3 on the season. He knew the Rams had been struggling and felt it was a lost…… MORE
Back At It Again
Took a break from blogging about AF Football and Basketball as the Football season ended and Hoops got underway. But I, like they, are back, and while early on results have been a bit disappointing, the balance of the season remains as the Falcons head to Michigan to face the #4 Wolverines on Saturday. When…… MORE
Random AF Football notes ahead of AF-Wyoming
Is there any question about who should start at QB? DJ Hammond is good and is only going to get better. He had 281 yards of total offense and 3 touchdowns vs New Mexico..It was nice to see Kadin Remsberg get a few touches-one he cashed in for 54 yards. And after the game his…… MORE
CAN’T FINISH…CAN’T WIN..
That’s one way to describe the Air Force Football season 8 games in. Play well in spurts, play not so well in others, and come up short. Boise St was another example of that last week. Safety Ross Connors shared with me how frustrating it has become for the Falcons. You make a couple more…… MORE
Random Thoughts on Air Force vs Boise State
I’m really curious about this game Saturday for a number of reasons. Can the Falcons beat a good team at home? Falcon Stadium is the only place in the conference where Boise St hasn’t won, although it is a small sample size. The Broncos strength is the Falcons weakness, because Boise St will throw the…… MORE
Random Thoughts…AF vs UNLV
Injuries are part of College football. These two teams have been hit a bit harder than most. UNLV won’t have Quarterback Armani Rogers Friday night-He’s out with a toe injury. Rogers is a dynamic player and the Rebels offense was built around him. His back-up Max Gilliam may not be the runner Rogers is, but…… MORE
RANDOM THOUGHTS-AIR FORCE VS NAVY
I have had a lot of people ask me about the Quarterback situation with Air Force. Arion Worthman started last week in place of an injured Isaiah Sanders. Then Worthman was replaced by DJ Hammond, who almost rallied the Falcons to victory. Worthman has not played well, and his two fumbles Saturday gave him a…… MORE
Random AF Thoughts…
This is the 3rd consecutive passing team the Falcons will face as they host Nevada at 2pm Saturday on 740 KVOR. We’ll see how much Defensive Coordinator John Rudzinski adjusts his defense, if at all, from the last 2 weeks. It’s so tough to get to a quarterback in the shotgun, with just a 3…… MORE
